Source text - English Although early forms of the novel are to be found in a number of places, including classical Rome, 10th– and 11th-century Japan, and Elizabethan England, the European novel is often said to have begun with Don Quixote in 1605. Early works of extended fictional prose, or novels, include works in Latin like the Satyricon by Petronius (c. 50 AD), and The Golden Ass by Apuleius (c. 150 AD), works in Ancient Greek such as Daphnis and Chloe by Longus (c. late second century AD), works in Sanskrit such as the 6th– or 7th-century Daśakumāracarita by Daṇḍin, and in the 7thcentury Kadambari by Banabhatta, Murasaki Shikibu's 11th-century Japanese work The Tale of Genji, the 12th-century Hayy ibn Yaqdhan (or Philosophus Autodidactus, the 17th-century Latin title) by Ibn Tufail, who wrote in Arabic, the 13th-century Theologus Autodidactus by Ibn al-Nafis, another Arabic novelist, and Blanquerna, written in Catalan by Ramon Llull (1283), and the 14th-century Chinese Romance of the Three Kingdoms by Luo Guanzhong. Murasaki Shikibu's Tale of Genji (1010) has been described as the world's first novel and shows essentially all the qualities for which Marie de La Fayette's novel La Princesse de Clèves (1678) has been praised: individuality of perception, an interest in character development, and psychological observation. Urbanization and the spread of printed books in Song Dynasty (960–1279) China led to the evolution of oral storytelling into fictional novels by the Ming dynasty (1368–1644). Parallel European developments did not occur until after the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg in 1439, and the rise of the publishing industry over a century later allowed for similar opportunities.	Translation - Portuguese Embora as primeiras versões do romance possam ser encontradas em vários locais, incluindo a Roma clássica, o Japão dos séculos X e XI, e a Inglaterra Elizabetana, costuma-se dizer que o romance europeu começou com Dom Quixote em 1605. Os primeiros trabalhos em prosa ficcional estendida, ou romances, incluem obras em latim como o Satyricon de Petronius (c. 50 dC) e The Golden Ass de Apuleio (c. 150 dC), obras em grego antigo, como Daphnis e Chloe por Longus (c. final do século II dC), obras em sânscrito, como o Daśakumāracarita do século VI ou VII por Daṇḍin, e no Kadambari do século VII de Banabhatta, o trabalho japonês do século XI de Murasaki Shikibu O Conto de Genji, o Hayy ibn Yaqdhan (ou Philosophus Autodidactus, o título latino do século XVII) de Ibn Tufail, que escreveu em árabe, o Theologus Autodidactus do século XIII de Ibn al-Nafis, outro romancista árabe, e Blanquerna, escrito em catalão por Ramon Llull (1283), e o Romance Chinês dos Três Reinos do século XIV por Luo Guanzhong. O Conto de Genji (1010) de Murasaki Shikibu, foi descrito como o primeiro romance mundial, ele nos mostra sobretudo todos os atributos pelos quais o romance de Marie de La Fayette, La Princesse de Clèves (1678) foi elogiado: individualidade da percepção, interesse no desenvolvimento dos personagens e observação psicológica. A urbanização e a disseminação de livros impressos na Dinastia Song (960-1279) da China, levou à evolução dos contos narrados para romances de ficção pela Dinastia Ming (1368-1644). Os progressos europeus paralelos só ocorreram após a invenção da prensa de impressão por Johannes Gutenberg em 1439, e a ascensão da indústria editorial mais de um século depois permitiu oportunidades semelhantes.

Bio

A translator by trade, I am a writer in heart (feel free to check out my writings on my Wattpad and Amazon profiles). Therefore, I enjoy artistic/creative translations above all.

Besides literature, I provide exceptional translation services in the fields of marketing/publishing and business, journalism, subtitles, and games. However, my greatest experience is with manga and subtitles.
